Abstract

The present invention relates to improved promoters and utilization thereof, in particular to promoters which are improved so as not to undergo methylation in the course of constructing transformants, and utilization thereof. According to the present invention, the expression efficiency of a structural gene can be enhanced even in a plant, e.g. chrysanthemum , which has weak expression of the structural gene by a cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter which as been considered a high expression promoter for plants.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified

1. An isolated DNA molecule comprising a polynucleotide having the sequence of SEQ ID NO:2 from nucleotide No. 7 to nucleotide No. 272. 
     
     
       2. An isolated DNA molecule comprising a polynucleotide having the sequence of SEQ ID NO:2. 
     
     
       3. A recombinant construct comprising the DNA according to  claim 1  or  2 . 
     
     
       4. The recombinant construct according to  claim 3 , comprising a structural gene DNA and the DNA according to  claim 1  or  2  which is incorporated at the 5′ site of the structural gene DNA in a manner such that it is expressed.
